Here are some tips about Pelican that you might find useful.
|
||||
|
||||
Custom 404 Pages
|
||||
================
|
||||
|
||||
When a browser requests a resource that the web server cannot find, the web
|
||||
server usually displays a generic "File not found" (404) error page that can be
|
||||
stark and unsightly. One way to provide an error page that matches the theme
|
||||
of your site is to create a custom 404 page, such as this Markdown-formatted
|
||||
example::
|
||||
|
||||
Title: Not Found
|
||||
Status: hidden
|
||||
Save_as: 404.html
|
||||
|
||||
The requested item could not be located. Perhaps you might want to check
|
||||
the [Archives](/archives.html)?
|
||||
|
||||
The next step is to configure your web server to display this custom page
|
||||
instead of its default 404 page. For Nginx, add the following to your
|
||||
configuration file's ``location`` block::
|
||||
|
||||
error_page 404 /404.html;
|
||||
|
||||
For Apache::
|
||||
|
||||
ErrorDocument 404 /404.html
|
||||
|
||||
